Assessment: Case Study - The New Royal Adelaide Hospital

Case Study Overview - In February 2011 construction began on the new Royal Adelaide Hospital (nRAH) project. With an initial budget of $1.7B (AUD) and a completion date of May 2016, this was to become one of the most expensive buildings ever constructed. Throughout the project a number of quality issues were encountered. For this assignment, you are required to analyse this project in order to identify and discuss these project quality issues.

Finding Relevant Information - You should begin by reviewing the material covered in the unit. You should also ensure that you are familiar with the textbook, articles referred to in the various modules, and PMOK. You should also find and read material produced by the Auditor General (AG) of South Australia. The AG reported to the State Parliament in 2015 and provided a Supplementary Report in 2017 and a follow up report in 2018, and these reports provide useful background information and summarise some of the core issues. You can find these reports at Auditor-General's Department South Australia website. This should be the starting point for your research for this case study. Remember, since this is a post-graduate project management unit, the marking rubrics require you to provide critical thought and solid references back to existing project management and general quality theory and practice. This also includes researching published academic papers and synthesising them to draw out the relevant themes that will underpin the work you will be producing.

As outlined in the Assessment Summary above, the Assessment 1 is an individual Case Study in two parts. Assessment 1a requires the submission of an Annotated Bibliography based on your initial research in support of an analysis of the Case Study in Assessment 1b. Your research for Assessment 1b will not be strictly limited to what you have submitted in Assessment 1a, however you would be disadvantaging yourself if your Assessment 1a research was not effective.

Assessment Notes: This Assignment is not a group exercise and must be completed and submitted individually through Blackboard. Email submissions will not be accepted. There is no word limit for the Annotated Bibliography in Assessment. However for Assessment 1b the maximum case study length is 3,000 words. For Assessment 1b this does not include the reference list. Please state the word count at the end of the case study. Words beyond 3,000 will not be assessed toward Assessment 1b. ECU uses the APA 6th references, and your work must comply with these standards. Consider using Endnote to help automate this process (see ECU library for more information). Although your lecturer can provide you with guidance by answering specific questions that you ask, your lecturer will not ‘pre-mark' your work, and will not assess whether you have done a suitable piece of work.

This means that your lecturer will not pre-read your assignment and will not comment on it. The reason for this is that this assessment needs to be your work and must demonstrate your depth of learning from the unit material and related professional and academic issues. The ECU learning consultants regularly provide assignment preparation workshops and can provide you with help whether you are based on campus or online. Submission - Your assignment must be submitted through the Assignment link below. The due date is shown in the Unit Plan. Remember to collate your work into a single Microsoft Word document. You can submit your work as many times as you wish before the deadline.
